A few citizens still cling to the scarce copies of books remaining in their society, so firemen are needed to burn those copies when they find them. Even then Beatty suggests that ordinary citizens were in favor of burning books because they found them personally offensive:

The screens frequently mentioned in the novel are a type of network that watches the citizens while providing a type of entertainment/propaganda. Bradbury is trying to warn people of the mind-numbing effects of television. Bradbury is warning people of the hypnotic propaganda potential of television.
